What is being bought

The GEN-CKD study (Genetic Variation on kidney function, diabetes), based at the MRC/UVRI & LSHTM Unit in Uganda, requires genotyping services. The genotyping services will be carried out through the H3Africa array held by CPGR (Centre for Proteomic & Genomic Research) in south Africa.

Lot details

Lot 1

Genotyping provides a comprehensive view of the genome and able to detects single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and other variations across the genome as well as identify potential causative disease variants for further targeted studies. 8,024 Samples are to be genotyped on the illumine-H3Africa Consortium Array v2, which was specially designed to enable identification of genetic associations with common and rare traits among African populations. Additional information: This procurement is being managed by the MRC/UVRI and LSHTM Uganda Research Unit.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 85. The category anchor is Medical analysis services (85148000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 8538,3711 median · 19.7 average (22,929 of 38,371 with a bid count)1.8 average (24,590 of 38,371 with named award suppliers)10 comparable price pairs

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.

Recurring requirementNot published
Procurement method rationaleThe Centre for Proteomic and Genomic Research in South Africa as most suitable to provide the services. They are uniquely the only facility that can genotype using the required H3Africa array which they co-developed specially for African researchers with Illumina (equipment manufacturer). Genotyping to be done against the H3 Africa Array (chip). This array was specifically designed by a consortium of African research organisations and experts, to establish a reference panel that is more representative of African genomic variation. More on the H3Africa consortium and the array here: (https://h3africa.org/index.php/2019/12/12/h3africa-chip-faq/) The H3Africa consortium selected the Life science equipment manufacturer, Illumina, to develop a chip with the array, into their array scanner: https://www.h3abionet.org/h3africa-chip https://h3africa.org/index.php/2019/12/12/h3africa-chip-faq/ Illumina provided their iscan system with the H3Africa chip and selected the non-profit CPGR as the lab where this would be placed for consortium members and genetic researchers throughout Africa to genotype samples against the chip’s reference panel: https://h3africa.org/index.php/2019/12/12/h3africa-chip-faq/ https://www.cpgr.org.za/south-africas-centre-for-proteomic-genomic-research-cpgr-launches-iscan-platform-in-support-of-h3africa-and-genomics-research-in-africa/ CPGR have the only instrument running the specific H3 Africa chip. Based on all the above, we believe there would be no benefit to running an open competitive selection process as the requirements are restrictive and can only be fulfilled by one lab.
